As you may remember, MSP is the same airport that hosted the "Flying Imams"

Looks like MSP may have grown a pair.

This will surely cause a major uproar here. Stay tuned!

It's about damned time. I thought we were going to roll over for another muslim demand.

At a meeting Wednesday of the Metropolitan Airports Commission, airport staff asked the commission to give the go-ahead for public hearings on a tougher policy that would suspend the licenses of drivers who refuse service for any reason other than safety concerns. Drivers who refuse to accept passengers transporting alcohol or service dogs would have their airport licenses suspended 30 days for the first offense and two years for the second offense, according to a revised taxi ordinance proposed by the commission's staff.

About time let the muzzys take their shria law and shove it

MSP has the best "Military support" room I've ever seen. They even have bunks upstairs for service people with long lay overs. Food and drinks always available. The nice folks on duty there are 100% volunteers. My hats off to them and my thanks for all the times they've made me and my men feel comfortable and appreciated.

The public has a right to be accomodated by those operating a public conveyence. This is America and we set the rules. If someone has religious or other objections to the commonly accepted standards of a secular American society, then they need to find another line of work.

I am appalled that this issue is getting any more than a Donald Trump level of consideration: You're Fired.

Looks like MSP may have grown a pair.

The only pair they grew was a new pair of kneepads to service the muzzies. 30 days?? 2 years?? How about,, LOSE the License, go find other work!

Oho, they've been refusing people with service dogs too, have they? I didn't see that in previous articles about this. I wonder if they thought their ban on alcohol laden passengers worked so well that they dared to extend it to dogs (with an end goal of refusing all infidels?)

[MississippiMan]

I'll be shocked if any governmental entity in this country follows through on correcting such nonsense. Shocked. We live in the iron grip of political correctness and it becomes more obvious by the day that nothing short of a cataclysmic wake-up call is gonna change things. The backward drivers will stomp and puff and the powers-who-be will quietly fade into the background. Bet a buck.

How long until CAIR files a lawsuit?

[Unicorn]

Public hearings my ass just do it.

[gwb2OO4]

Why should the government meddle in this business?

If you owned a cab, would you want the state telling you who you must provide service to? What if you don't want bums, or sodomites, or terrorists, or other dregs of society riding in your vehicle?

The government's responsibility ends at ensuring that cab companies can legally and without repercussion require their drivers to transport alcohol, service animals, etc. The state should NOT micromanage business activities.

[peggybac]

I think all non Muslim taxi drivers should refuse to pick up Muslims passengers.

[Ben Hecks]

I take it these Muslim cab drivers have no problem driving a taxi fueled with ethanol?

[Pharmboy]

The Baghdad International Airport needs experienced taxi drivers. Those miserable muzzies should go there...

[taxesareforever]

People need to pack ham sandwiches into the taxis and break em out when they get on the road. Leave a sample on the seat when exiting.

[William Terrell]

I'll be proud of them. Everybody needs to crack sown on this stuff. It's like the schoolyard bully. First, he intimidates you. You cave. He then wants to kick you around. You tolerate. He wants your lunch money. You go on a diet. Then, he wants you to go down on him.

Et cetera.

This is just days after they told muslims at the same airport that they don't get their own prayer room they have to share the room with non muslims.
Their response was there will be trouble if we have to pray next to non-muslims.

Now this, I predict angry deminstrations in the near future.
